    Next 48 hours: hosting one barbecue, attending two more, working half the public holiday. I need a rest.


    Happy Straya Day from Chippo! http://t.co/D7Zd5gBk5X

    @justasitsounds @ConscientiousCk We’re coming! Lunch guests just left. Just tidying up and packing before cabbing over.


    @justasitsounds @ConscientiousCk BTW – Shall we bring some homebrew pale ale? 🙂


    @justasitsounds @ConscientiousCk we come bearing Settlers of Catan, home brew, a USB stick of movies, and hipster ice cream. NERRRRRRRDS!


    @justasitsounds @ConscientiousCk Disaster! The home brew keg was empty after only half a bottle. #sadface Wine it is.

    Thanks @justasitsounds and @ConscientiousCk for a lovely evening! Including surprisingly delicious CROCODILE.


    Ugh. Hangover headache. That’s not gonna pair well with a baby shower…


    BALLS! http://t.co/c4XrV8Qx1W

    @drkknits Ah the other thing. You’re all mad, you know.


    SONOFA. Today, for the first time, the trolley wheels lock leaving Broadway. Had to call Snook to come help or I can’t get shopping home!


    No brontosauruses were hurt in the making of our dinner. A cow, on the other hand… http://t.co/Y6gHiQwVMY


    Mr Snook said proudly: LOOK AT THAT SMOKE RING. LOOK AT IT! http://t.co/N2TvV7BVot


    Australia Day is so conflicting for me. I’m an immigrant, and I chose to come here and become a citizen. I feel like I can’t celebrate that-


    without being labelled a bogan. I get why others object, I do. I just wish there was a day where I could show pride at being at Aussie.


    @drkknits Yeah. It’s Columbus Day + 4th of July, which sucks. We have issues with the former definitely. But I like the latter.


    @drkknits Oh no! Our membership runs out on 31st. We weren’t going to renew for a while since we’re pretty stocked up.

    So Money – An Oral History of “Swingers” – Loved this. It should have been subtitled: “Why Kris Had to Suffer through a Lot of College Parties Where Drunk Theater Majors Tried to Swing Dance.”

    TIL that cat cafes in Tokyo are so over, and the new hotness is RABBIT CAFES. http://t.co/WpHOSp20Xl


    Loving the new @GOGET booking form where you can provide a description of the trip for your bill! Super helpful improvement. Well done.


    @randomknits I was thinking of you. If I win the lottery, I’ll send you as a present.


    @nolim1t I don’t know if we’re having male mentors or not. I’ll find out. I think the goal would be to have women if we can.


    @nolim1t Right, but with @GOGET I’m the one driving. So I kinda know where I went and how fast, since I was the one controlling the car! 🙂


    @knitterjp @garethrhughes WE ARE NEVER EVER EVER GETTING BACK TOGETHER…


    @unlikelylibrary Oh no! The mini??

    @redambition @Rellarc79 @pixel8ted Is that the one with Samwise Gamgee as Twoflower?


    @RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits I think that was dirty on some level I can’t even follow. Dirty.


    @Rellarc79 @redambition @pixel8ted I have this recorded on DVR. It nearly killed me. Sadly, I am allergic to Discworld. #haaaaaaaaate


    @RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits She said EIGHTEEN! You went from double entendre to #nightmarefuel.


    @garethrhughes @knitterjp I must listen now. I also like “Mean” and that recent duet with the dude.


    Today’s bulletproof coffee experiment: double coconut oil, slightly more ghee. Complicating factor: hangover.
